03/19/25, I brought my daughter for a contact exam. We told them she had never worn contacts before. They tried to make us buy the contacts before she had a trial pair. We waited for the trial pair to come in. We received a call 03/26/25 saying to come in for her contacts. When we got there 03/27/25, the girl told us off saying we didn't have an appointment for the fitting. No one offered us one. Why call & say to come in but not tell us we need an appointment? We took the trial ********** learned to put them in at home. They do not fit properly. Her sight is blurry. The prescription is not correct.We gave them another chance. I made an appointment for an eye exam for 04/01/25. I arrived & was told to sign a remote form. I had no idea what it was. The copy was too hard to read. I signed it & was told to go back & wait. I was not given a copy. I was taken into a room & told the exam would be done by 2 employees. The doctor would be at another location on a screen. How is this legal? Two untrained people doing an eye ************** fitting?I went to the front desk to speak to the receptionist about the no show doctor and my daughter's contacts. I told her they should notify a customer that there will be no doctor there to do the appointment exam. The receptionist yelled at me saying that she called me. She absolutely did not. Then she said she left a message. She did not. I told her I drove 1 1/2 hours round trip, again, for nothing. She could care less, making faces at me.What horrible customer service! My daughter paid $129 for an exam, no fitting, and a trial pair of contacts that do not work for her. Why would anyone trust this place for something as important as eye care? I wasted gas money and time to come in for appointments for nothing. An eye exam with the wrong prescription, no contact fitting, contacts that can't be worn, and no actual doctor. This is unacceptable.We are requesting a $129 refund for services not complete and unusable.Business Response

I'm on my third pair of glasses from America's Best. I really appreciate this company, but I have a big problem your policy won't address.I paid extra for the feature that causes transitions to darken in the car, knowing I'd be buying one.I even called to make sure that feature was ordered, before they were crafted.But for over a year after, I didn't buy a car yet, so I didn't know they weren't working. There was no way to tell from the backseat of a lyft or uber.I finally got a car! :-) And yesterday was sunny, so I looked in the mirror and my glasses weren't dark.I called, and was told they can't help me since it's been too long.That seems unfair , though, under the circumstances.I'd be willing to share in the cost of new lenses only ( of course I wouldn't need new frames) but full price plus another exam seems unfair under these particular circumstances.

July ****** I purchased a pair of eyeglasses from Americas Best Eyewear in ***********. From the time I have received them I had issues with them. They fall off my face/head with any slight movement, the frames are warped. They are very loose. And every weekend I was going back to have them adjust them. And ever adjusted they were now cracking the lenses after about the third time. I told them why do I have to keep going back and forth and they stated I should have them adjust every 4 weeks. So from mid July of ************************************************************ December ************************************************************************************** I havent had them long enough. So I waited until about 3 weeks ago March ****** to be exact this Saturday 3/29 to be exact will be 3 weeks). Again I went in complaining about the glasses and a lady helped , she told me the frames were to short for my face and told me to go choose another frame from the green tag, so I choose a new frame which she helped me and stated they will replace the lenses and frames she did measurements and all, I called on Monday 3/24/25 because I havent received a call that my glasses arrived and ***** told me there was no order placed for new glasses. To come in and theyll fix the issue and she is the same person that helped me supposedly to get a new pair, what she told me over the phone is exactly what she said when I went in person. I had insisted that she did not adjust them again because more damage to lens but she insisted even when I kept asking her not too and has cracked the lenses even more and frames are cracking all around.Business Response

Yes, thank you for reaching out. ***** has reached out to me and I again went to the store and was again able to pick out another pair of glasses, but I will not be satisfied until I receive the glasses because this is the same process I did almost a month and ended up with nothing. So I will have I better response once I receive the glasses.
Thank you.

The business keeps ordering the wrong frames for my glasses. This is a problem because they don't fit my head correctly. Feb 2024 I bought these, and had to come back 4 times to pick them up because the staff couldn't be bothered to double check the order. Feb 2025 I asked for a replacement because it was still under warranty, they ordered them, then canceled the order and didnt tell me. I explained the situation, they ordered them again, and they are the wrong ones again. The manager did refund the cost of the frames in 2024, but why does it have to be so difficult to get the correct fitting frames? I still don't have the correct ones, and can't keep leaving work early in the hopes that they ordered the correct onesBusiness Response

I ordered prescription contact lenses in January from the **********, ** (************** location). The employee ordered the incorrect contact lenses and used my insurance as a method of payment. I told the manager ****** that the contacts were wrong when I received them one month later (middle of February). The manager assured me that she would rectify the situation by ordering the correct contact lens for me. I am at the store picking up my revised order now and the order is a pair of trial contacts - this is just one pair NOT the 6-month supply that was supposed to be corrected. This is insurance fraud on behalf of this store as I cannot use the brand that was ordered incorrectly. This was deliberately done as I reported the employee who originally ordered my contacts for messing up my contact order. The manager told me that this was the employees first day working. I am seeking relief and an actual order correction, as all employees in this store location are rude and I cannot replace my contact lenses. I have already notified my insurance carrier of this fraudulent activity as well.Business Response

Dear Customer Relations Representative,
I am responding to the BBB Consumer Complaint #*********filed by Mr. ***** ****.
I am the ************* supervisor who spoke to Mr. **** on 3/7/2025 when he called our office. We apologize for any inconvenience this situation may have caused him.
Mr.**** ordered glasses at our *************** ** location. Unfortunately, there was a delay on his order, and Mr. **** opted for a refund. He informed the store he no longer had the **** pre-paid card that he originally paid with. Per our refund policy, refunds must go back to the original form of payment.However, since Mr. **** claims he did not have that pre-paid card anymore, the store provided the refund as a corporate check.
Mr.***** glasses order still arrived at the store. It seems he was called that they were ready for pick up, without the associate knowing they had already been refunded. Mr. **** still came to pick up those glasses, even though he had been refunded and had already cashed the refund check. Therefore, the store did request a stop payment on the check since Mr. **** was getting the product that he paid for.
When I spoke to Mr. ***** we thoroughly went over the situation and I advised were unable to provide product at no charge. I informed him he could either keep the glasses, since we put a stop payment on the check. Or if he wanted to be refunded, he could bring the glasses back to the store. Customer told me he was going to go to the store and bring the glasses back for a refund. Our records indicate he was refunded on 3/10/25.
While we regret any inconvenience Mr. **** may have experienced and we certainly apologize,we are unable to honor his request of a $1000 compensation.
Please be advised this complaint has been received and documented here at our corporate office, where it will remain on file. Once again, I do apologize and if I can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.

Then, 3 days later, they stopped payment on the check. Call them what they'd done and start a rectifying the situation and paying it back to my bank to get it straight. They told me to bring a card up there to take a put it on, but since I didn't have it anymore.Well as you could see on the receipt.They took down information.Scan my card and it did not go back on my car.I told them I did not have the card and they put it on a card that I no longer have I did not get money they sent it not to the card I provided as the refund shows they messed up and need to fix it when I picked up glasses there was a no bill how would a employee allow that I have insurance yet they didn't charge them but stuck me with a negative bank account once a check clears they aren't suppose to stop payment without notification yet file a dispute they didn't and never put money on cars I provided as shown on refund receipt thay g ot there money immediately from me yet made me wait 10 days for a good check gone bad the order was canceled why would they call me anyway maybe good business but infact just the opposite they can make this right or ill file a civil suit against them well enough evidence they

Dear Customer Relations Representative,
I am responding to the BBB Consumer Complaint #********,filed by Mr. ***** ****.
I have investigated the refund that was processed by the store on 3/10/25. At that time, I was informed that Mr. **** should have been able to swipe any other card for the refund to go back on. However, our records indicate the refund went back to the pre-paid **** card ending in 5145; the same card used on the original purchase.
I deeply apologize for this inconvenience. Im not at the store so Im not sure how this may have occurred.
I have reached out to our ****************** to see how we can proceed so that ******* gets the refund he is owed. The ****************** informed me that they are looking to reverse the refund that was mistakenly put back on the pre-paid **** card. Once they get those funds back, they will issue Mr. **** a check in the refund amount of $264.16. I know Mr. **** said he didnt want another check from us, but this is the only way we can give him the refund back at this point due to the refund error at the store.
Please advise Mr. **** this refund reversal process can take up to ***** business days. However, it is an automatic process and as previously stated, once we get the funds back, a check will be sent to Mr. ******************* be advised this complaint has been received and documented here at our corporate office, where it will remain on file.

On March 27th at 5:30 PM, I had an appointment at America's Best Tamarac for my 13-year-old daughter's eye exam. The price to pay was $69 for the exam. They saw us but were unable to perform the correct measurement, and they told me it would be better to take her to a pediatric ophthalmologist. Since the measurement wasn't done, I wanted to leave because how could I pay for a service that wasn't provided? They told me I had to pay regardless, but if I didn't want to pay the $69 for the exam, I could pay $47 and get a pair of frames. I said no and tried to reason with them, as I mentioned before, they didnt provide the service. They agreed to give me a prescription for a "X" measurement, which clearly doesn't match my daughter's eye issue. In the end, I paid the $47. I lost my time and money for a service that wasnt given to me since I never wanted to take frames.Business Response

Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.
BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
